A cock ring is like it sounds: a pliable ring that's placed on the base of a penis or dildo in order to enhance and sustain an erection or provide clitoral stimulation.

To understand why these rings are more than just sexual accessories, you first need to understand how erection works.

When a person with a penis becomes aroused, blood flow to the penis increases,causing the shaft to expand. Through the contraction axis, the cock ring prevents blood from flowing back, so the blood can still rush into the penis, but the blood that flows out is limited by the ring - which makes the penis "hard" for longer than it otherwise would be.

Essentially, once an intimate relationship occurs, the ring can be placed, which will help maintain and build a larger erection.

However, cock rings are not only good for those who wear them. Typically, the top of the cock ring has a sleeve that can have a bullet vibrator or something like that, and could be vibrating on someone's clit.

If you're new to cock rings,an adjustable silicone or elastomer version is recommended. These can be adapted to the scrotum, which can delay and increase the feeling of ejaculation. You can also buy a solid cock ring made of stainless steel or hard plastic, but these are not very flexible and can feel contraction or even get stuck.

Although you should be 100% inquiring about the instructions attached to your particular cock ring, you can remember some professional tips.

To prevent slipping, place the ring firmly on the base of the penis. This is where most of the large veins surround the penis and can maximize its effect. If you are using a cock ring made of silicone, avoid using silicone lubricants (which can wear silicone toys) and consider using water-based lubricants. But remember, adding a lubricant to the mixture will slip the cock ring.

Do not wear the penis ring for a long time. In general, limit the use time to 30 minutes, because restricting blood flow to the penis will no longer cause blood vessel and nerve damage. If it starts to hurt, stop using the ring immediately.
